A mystery is waiting to be solved in
Rothley
Rothley residents were shocked to hear that the body of amateur historian, Luke Indepast, was found lifeless on the village green. It was widely known that Luke was researching some old parchments which may have lead to untold treasures. Locals have always believed that Sir Lloyd de Banque of The Rothley Temple brought items of great value back from the crusades and buried them in the area. But with Luke's death, the mystery remains unsolved.
